Henry, Belgard, or Techo-Bloc—or with a masonry application using cinder block, a scratch coat, and your choice of veneer stone with a bluestone treadstock cap.
Sitting walls have become a very popular addition to your traditional hardscape patio. The reason being, is you are drastically improving your sitting room.

Garden walls can be used to build up planting beds for proper planting of specimen material, use for elevation changes in your landscape beds, or used to creat an accent within the garden.

A wall can help with retaining a garden, grade of ground, or a aesthetic feature
Retaining walls are one of the classic examples of a functional landscape application.

Retaining walls require excavation, proper footing or base materials, and recieve a cap at completion for a finished look.

We offer a wide variety of boulder wall installations such as PA fieldstone boulders to Wissahickon schlist, and West Mountain boulders.

While bold, it is a subtle landscape design technique that flows naturally with the landscape and remains budget friendly, while being quick to construct.

Steps offer a transition in your landscape from one feature to the next. Steps are constructed using the proper base materials or footings, similar to a wall application. Steps can be constructed using a variety of segmented wall block such as Belgard, E.P. Henry, or Techo-Bloc. They can also be constructed like a masonry application using cinder block and veneer stone. Steps are capped for tread, grip, and safety.
